Hold me close,
Feel my heart beat,
Love me through the night;

Keep me safe,
From harsh words,
Just keep me alive;

But you're slipping,
Away from me,
Away from me,
Yet you're always,
On my mind,
Please stop slipping,
Away from me,
Away from me,
Your love,
I cannot find;

The pain returns,
My love has gone,
And found somebody new;

But here I am,
Strong once more,
Won't let you bring me down;

But you're slipping,
Away from me,
Away from me,
Yet you're always,
On my mind,
Please stop slipping,
Away from me,
Away from me,
Your love,
I cannot find;

I see him there,
Smiling bright,
About something deep inside;

I catch his eye,
As the world,
Slips out of sight;

Won't let him slip,
Away from me,
Away from me,
He's there,
To help me shine,
Please don't slip,
Away from me,
Away from me,
Never leave,
My mind;

Please never leave,
My mind.
